A new design for ultra-efficient, nano-thin piezoelectric materials could revolutionize self-powered electronics, such as wearable gadgets and medical implants like pacemakers.
Researchers from the RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, have fabricated a flexible and printable energy source material, which generates a voltage difference when pressure is applied to its surface. It could pave the way for self-powering wearables or pacemakers that could be powered by heartbeats.
Details of the new nano-thin piezoelectric material are reported in the journal Materials Today, January 18.

A new type of ultra-efficient, nano-thin material could advance self-powered electronics, wearable technologies and even deliver pacemakers powered by heart beats.
The flexible and printable piezoelectric material, which can convert mechanical pressure into electrical energy, has been developed by an Australian research team led by RMIT University.
It is 100,000 times thinner than a human hair and 800% more efficient than other piezoelectrics based on similar non-toxic materials.

LAHORE: A day after the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) announced that all the national and provincial lawmakers belonging to its constituent parties will hand over their resignations to the heads of their parties by Dec 31, 14 lawmakers of PML-N submitted their resignations to its leadership.
Two rebel MPAs of the PML-N Jalil Sharqpuri and Ghaisuddin however, declared that they would not resign from the membership because they did not adhere to the “anti-military views of its Nawaz Sharif”.
